Thanks

Bump for adding info in post #2

 

awesome reign

 

Thanks for writing this!!!!

 

Good info reign I just got my 17-40L and 580EX II in the mail. Still waiting for CS4 to come out, my 50D to get here, and my Manfrotto 055 with 322RC2 head.

 

^^very nice setup!

 

Thanks, I've also got a 50mm f/1.4 sitting here that I like a lot too. Just need to get a 70-200 f/4L and call it a day so I have my range covered.

 

Do you have an online gallery or anything?

 

omg awesome thread. Cannot wait till i get my camera.

 

Eh, right now just my flickr. It's full of older stuff also. I need to update it and start only posting my best and newest. I'm working on putting together a portfolio to start up doing photography for a source of second income through college. Some of the recent portraits of Shane are only good in medium size because they are somewhat out of focus in large size.

nice thread reign
im in a photography class in HS and we are learning about all the dfferent combinatios with iso and shutter speed, in calse we use the d40,d60 and sum canon camera

 

Canons are Rebel, XT, XTi, XS, XSi, 10D, 20D, 30D, 40D, and 50D. Highly doubt they'd give you a nice full frame camera like a 5D or 1D lol

 

Bump for ryan to finish =P
